Saturday. September 4. Day 36.

Firstly huge thanks in Steynsburg for receiving us with smiles and special thanks goes out to Nic and Petrusa form Sonnekus Guesthouse who housed us.

The sun was out and beating down on mother earth as we made our way tothe marker ready to skate into Hofmeyer.

When we reached the marker Cornell and James couldn’t resist the cool water of a nearby dam. The climb the wind pump to the top and leapt into the dam.

Luckily the road was pretty smooth and we didn’t experience to much traffic skating to Hofmeyer. Puddy complained about a slight case of light headedness but focused his thoughts on the cause and pushed through till the end anyway.

Puddy did well today with 28km's worth of skating a 40km/h top speed averaging at 22km/h

We spent the night in the Local Victoria Hotel in Hofmeyer owned by Gert and Louise where we watched the rugby and received some donations from friendly locals.

Thanks Hofmeyer for your hospitality and support.

Tomorrow Cradock.
